A few days ago, we already reported on a Leak for the new Expansion, which shared that the new Expansion is named Alterac Valley and also shared a Shaman Legendary with us.
Now the German Website Buffed.de shared an article, with details that haven’t been shared anywhere else yet.
Note: Leaks can be wrong, so don’t take them too seriously, even tho we believe they will be correct!
Translated Details:
The new Expansion Alterac Valley will launch on December 7th.
A fight for honor: The time has come to take up arms! Starting today, players in Rifts in Alterac Valley can choose a faction by choosing one of two free golden legendary cards: the Shaman Elder Drek’Thar of the Frostwolf Clan for the Horde or the Mountain King Vanndar Stormpike for the Alliance. From December 7th to January 11th, each faction will receive unique quests where players will earn Honor Points by playing and winning games. The faction that earned the most honor at the end of the event will be declared the winner in the next mini-set, and all players will receive a diamond version of the victorious faction’s leader card.
New keyword: Honorable Victory.It has never felt better to give a servant the fatal blow.The Honorable Victory keyword grants unique bonuses for dealing the exact amount of damage needed to an enemy, such as reducing the cost of all spells or + 1 / + 1 for each honorable victory.
Mercenary heroes: After a year of battles, the mercenary heroes on both sides are hardened for battle.They are now hero cards with game changing effects – such as increasing a player’s maximum mana crystals to 20!With their powerful new battle cries and hero skills, these heroes can decide the outcome of the battle between the Horde and the Alliance.
